The inhabitants, who are of Scandi-

ice-house can be left unlocked on the
darkest night without lump being
raised.
The island is warmed by several vol
canoes, that are kept fired up night and
day ready to respond to an alarm. If
they miss an eruption the people are
liable to break out with the scurvy,
which is the same thing. Scurvy is the
national air of Iceland. When they
don't sing that they 'roar-a borealis,
which is also a northern production.
Though Icelanders are temperate
people they are fond of putting in a
glass occasionally, which accounts for
the number of glaciers among them.
The island is noted for its hot springs,
called geysers. Nearly every resident
cultivates a geyser in his garden, so if
